Dance Dreams began in 1977 in the garage of the founder's family home, where she took over her mother's studio during her senior year of high school. The founder, Glenna, attended U.N.C. at Charlotte while teaching evenings and Saturdays at the studio, then known as Griffith School of Dance. She graduated with a degree in dance education K-12, holding a Bachelor of Creative Arts Degree. The studio subsequently moved from Glenn Ave to Cannon Village before the founder built her own facility on Brookdale Street. Her love for theater is evident in the studio's yearly productions, and her talent with younger students was recognized nationally by Showstopper, the nation's largest talent organization.
